The award goes to HARMONIK!

ANALYSIS:
*This would have been a CLEAN SWEEP had it not been for JAMES CARDOZO and MONEY G. voting for BELJAZ. I don't think this outcome was ever in doubt, even before the voting started. The 50 HMI Panel members agreed.

+RICHIE of Zenglen: "Harmonik - the MUSIC epi se la'm kampe. Very good album"

+MICKAEL GUIRAND: "HARMONIK. It's been a while since the market haven t been excited about a new group... Marketing is on point, Album is good, Live playing is gonna become great with time."

+TI MICHEL TROPIDISC: "Harmonik. They had a strong marketing campaign, The cd is well received. They have one of the best young musician in Sanders"
